Lola was always dazzling. How could he not see her? But he shrank back at the sight of the man by
her side.
"Zoe!" A familiar voice came from behind. Of course Zoe knew who it was!
"Lola!" He put on a big smile. It had been four years that they didn't see each other, while she was
more attractive than before. Zoe wanted to give her a hug. But he resisted the impulse to do so.
"Zoe, it's really you!" Excited to see her bestie, Lola went up and embraced him.
Zoe stiffened and put his arms around her.
In just half a second, Lola loosened her embrace. Looking at his empty embrace, Zoe felt a sense of
loss.
"Why are you here?" The woman flashed a bright smile at him and asked curiously.
"I... To be brief, the cocktail party tonight is held by my father. And I took over from him two years ago."
Zoe was in fact the illegitimate son of Johnson Lu, a commercial giant in A Country. He found his
legitimate son was not to be relied upon. Therefore, he had forced Zoe to take charge of his company a
few years ago.
"You're Johnson Lu's son? I've been in A Country for four years but I've never seen you!" Lola asked
curiously. It made no sense. She had been in the business world for three years. They should have
come across each other.
Zoe sipped at his red wine with a self-deprecating smile.
"I'm not only a bastard but also a puppet!" The only thing he needed to do was to sit quietly in the CEO
office every day. He was an out-and-out puppet that was manipulated by Johnson Lu. He just occupied
the post, and everything was decided by Johnson Lu.
"What?" Lola gave him a sad look. "I have been in SL group for three years. Everything is okay." They
sat side by side with their back to the party.
"Well, you... are together with him again?" Zoe looked at her cheerless expression. Lola shook her
head. Relieved, Zoe clinked his glass against hers for a toast.
They exchanged their contacts. After a quarter of an hour, Harry found them. When he saw the back of
a man and a woman, his eyes glowed with coldness!
Noticing someone stood behind, Zoe knew it was Harry and said to Lola instantly, "Your ex-husband is
here, I'm off!" Lola was speechless as Zoe ran to another corner of the banquet hall, and Harry came to
her.
When she came out from the party, Joey was already gone. Harry drove Lola to the Li family.
Lola never took her eyes off her phone. The two people were silent all the way to the manor of Li
family.
"Thanks, Boss Si, I'm leaving now." Lola saw her home, though she was a little curious how Harry knew
she lived here. On second thought, she realized that it was a piece of cake for this shrewd man to find
her address—not to mention the Li family was so famous.
"I'll pick you up tomorrow morning!" Harry said while pulling the woman who was about to get out. She
looked back at him in puzzlement.
It was at this time that Lola remembered that her car was still at the company.
"No, I can go to the company by myself." She refused, for she could ask her brother to drive her to
work.
With a downcast expression, Harry pulled her into his arms and lowered his head.
The scene in the luxury car was spotted by the man in an incoming military vehicle.
Jordan took a closer look and was sure it was his sister, and the man looked like... Harry Si? The
legend of the business world. Why did his sister stay with him?
However, when he thought of Nicole, who actually looked like Harry, he wondered if...
Knowing that Harry was up to no good, Lola wanted to break away from his arms. Harry whispered in
her ear, "I'll pick you up tomorrow morning. If you dare to say no, you're doomed!"
...Though they hadn't seen each other for a few years, Harry was still so overbearing. "Seven thirty," he
said. Again she compromised. Four years had passed, while Lola hadn't grown smarter and still fell into
his trap!
The man kissed her again before letting her go.
When Lola got out of the car, Harry saw the man in the opposite car looking straight at him. Without
feeling the least bit embarrassed, he just politely nodded to Jordan and drove off.
Lola, however, was embarrassed to see her big brother, who must have seen everything just now!
Jordan beckoned Lola to get in the military vehicle. Sitting on the passenger seat, Lola uttered,
"Jordan, I..."
"He is Nicole's father!" Jordan said assertively, when he masterfully controlled the steering wheel and
drove the vehicle to the villa garage.
Jordan had already guessed? Was it because Nicole and Harry looked alike? No, Nicole looked more
like herself!
"Yes, Jordan, please don't tell him now!" Lola said. She had not set things right between her and Harry,
so it was likely that the man would take Nicole away from her in retaliation.
Jordan nodded and turned off the engine. They walked out of the vehicle to the villa. The others had
gone to bed. At this time, Jordan thought for a moment and said, "I'll be free the day after tomorrow.
Will you go to D City with me?"
Going to D City to propose a marriage to Wendy? She grinned happily, but shook her head when she
realized that she had plans. "I have to go to Nicole's kindergarten the day after tomorrow. Jordan, you
go by yourself. Be nice. Wendy is a good girl!"
Jordan nodded and entered the study. Lola went to Nicole's room.
She had spent less time with her daughter recently. With a sense of guilt, she carried her sleeping
daughter to her big bed.
Nicole rolled over and fell into sleep again. Lola looked at her daughter's little face, smiling with
satisfaction. In fact, she was already content to have Nicole. As for Harry ... let it go!
The next morning, Lola was awakened by her daughter's kisses. She took a look at her cell phone. It
was only six o'clock. This little girl woke up so early.
"Mommy, you're late for work!" Nicole sat up in bed and looked at her mommy, who was so pretty!! And
she kissed Lola on the cheek again.
"Well, my sweet Nicole, would you like to sleep a little longer?" Lola held her chubby daughter in her
arms and kissed her.
Nicole shook her head. "Mommy, do you forget to tell me where daddy is?" She kept this question in
her little brain, for she really wanted to see her daddy.
Lola got sobered when she heard Nicole's question. "Your daddy has gone abroad to earn money for
you, and he will come back soon!" She could only make up such an excuse. Oh, the man said he
would pick her up at seven thirty!
"What does daddy look like? Is he the man on mommy's phone?" Her phone? Oh, she did keep some
pictures of Harry in her cell phone...
